I just received news that the NAMBA "Gas Scale Hydro" proposal passed by an overwhelming margin. So what does this mean? We now have a national set of rules to follow when building hulls for the class. Soon the rules will be posted in the NAMBA rule book but in the mean time please visit...

Way to go Mike- Maybe the Speedy and her driver should come to Seattle in October!!!!!

David - Can you forward me a set of 1/8 scale electric rules that we will follow at the NW Scale Champ race including prop requirements.

Hi David - I want to see a minimum of five boats to run the class. Since I don't believe the boats in RCU are following the current NAMBA class rules for 1/8 scale electric and we will be running the boats in their own class (not running with the NITRO 1/8 scale boats) should we just follow the...

Hi Lorhring The 1/8 scale electric boats are welcome at the NW Scale Championship race if they can register at least five boats to make the class. The boats they are building are fast and I look forward to see the class grow just like the other scale classes have in the Northwest. Marty...

Tony was one of the good guy's. He will be missed by many from his boating famliey. Thoughts and prayers go out to the Arena family. Marty and Pam

Mark - The reason we made "Gas Scale Hydro" rules 1.667 scale is due to the NAMBA max hull length length of 60 inches - The 1.667 size (roughly 20% larger than 1/8 scale) allowed us to fit almost all the boats from the NAMBA master hull roster into the class. Full 1/6 scale would have made a...

Bird- I think it would be cool to watch a large unlimited scale class run - Turbine -Nitro - Gas - Electric all racing together would be pretty cool. I think I will add the class to the 2013 Northwest Scale Championship race, So unlimited power racing - Only two rules we need are A. hulls...
